Ever since I found out that the correct term for a group of sharks is actually a shiver of sharks, I thought it would be cool to find out if there were different terms for other marine species ….. So for all you trivia buffs out there………
A group of fish is often called a school or a shoal however different fish do have their own group names…
A company of Angel fish
A battery of Barracuda
A grind of Blackfish
A school of Butterfly fish
A fleet of Bass
A troop of Dogfish
A swarm of Dragonet fish
A flock of Dolphins
A swarm of Eels
A glide of Flying fish
A glean of Herrings
A smack of Jellyfish
A shoal of Mackerel
A bed of Oysters
A pack of Perch
A cluster of Porcupine fish
A bind of Salmons
A family of Sardines
A herd of Seahorses
A shiver of Sharks
A troupe of Shrimps
A shoal of Scad
A slither of Snakes
A fever of Stingrays
